Your Last.fm connections as an evolving city.
Using the neighbours, friends, and groups data from your profile, Hoods.fm gradually builds a city, placing you at the center and other users around, clustering the ones with similar tastes together, and placing the ones with very compatible taste closer to you. The visualization evolves over time, so you can see the rise, development, and fall of your city from when you first joined Last.fm until the present day.
The style of each user‚Äôs house represents their listening habits: rock as suburban bungalows, hip hop as brownstones, country as farmhouses, etc. The more music listened to, the higher the building. Since most people mix up what they listen to, the resulting houses will be a patchwork of styles – a superbly bizarre architecture.¬†
If you click on any dwelling, an extra layer of information appears to give details on that specific user and what their connection to you is. The ground under all related users highlights, so you can see how your neighbours are connected to each other. An extra click will take you to that user’s profile page on Last.fm, where you will be able to get all the available details.
